No, I think the color changes should go to 19.x, too, or not be made
at all.

There already is.  (set-face-background 'default "white") looks simple
to me.  Even better (read: faster) is the Xdefaults way of doing it.

Emacs.default.attributeBackground:	gray80

To me this is less intuitive than the Lisp way.  Besides, I really do
think this should be the first line (not literally, but the first
effective line) of the sample.Xdefaults file.  Steve, do you want a
patch to that effect?
